CHIANTI RISERVA DOCG 2019<\/h1>\n

Chianti Riserva DOCG 2019 Scuderia Italia is a Tuscan DOCG red wine made from a limited selection of Chianti production, chosen for the \u201cRiserva\u201d mention. The best grapes are selected during the harvest; in addition, the ageing period helps enhance the wine\u2019s structure, balance and complexity.<\/p>\n

Chianti Riserva DOCG 2019 shows an intense red colour, with elegant aromas of ripe fruit, spices and subtle evolved notes. On the palate it is full, harmonious, with soft tannins and good persistence.<\/p>\n

It pairs perfectly with roasts, grilled meats, game and aged cheeses.<\/p>\n
